Last week a team of two dentists and their dental assistants arrived from Ballarat, Victoria to provide free dental treatment to Teouma and Mele areas. The initiative was organized by Rotary Australia.

The Novo Dental mobile clinic is often used by visiting volunteer dentists through Rotary in Australia or the Presbyterian Church of Vanuatu (through their health clinic, opposite Independence Park).

During their stay in Vanuatu, the Australian team removed 120 teeth in one day and 180 teeth the next. Tank yu tumas blong hard wok blong yu!
